Center for Life Principles Mission Statement

Our mission is to establish throughout the world, the recognition that all beings of human origin are persons endowed with intrinsic dignity and the inalienable right to life from conception to natural death. To accomplish this goal, we use the curriculum of the “Life Principles” as laid out in the book, Healing the Culture: A Commonsense Philosophy of Happiness, Freedom, and the Life Issues, by Robert J. Spitzer, S.J., Ph.D. We define our activities by the production and presentation of various Life Principles programs and materials designed to educate and motivate the human heart.

Through educational efforts, we seek reform in our culture’s understanding of:

Personhood

The recognition of a dignified and comprehensive definition of “human person.”
A return to the critical assumption that all beings of human origin should be considered “persons,” and treated as such.

View of Life

Recognition and promotion of the intangible contributory dimensions of happiness, success, and love by family, social, religious, educational, business, and political communities.
Response to the spurious belief that some human lives have “quality” while others do not; cultural consensus that all human life has intrinsic value and immeasurable worth.
A dignified community response to human suffering; one which views compassion as “suffering with” the other.

Freedom and Rights

A cultural attitude which embraces common responsibility in its pursuit of ethics and freedom.
Legal and cultural respect for the inalienability of rights.
A restoration of fidelity to the objective priority of inalienable rights.
A cultural philosophy which unites individual rights with the common good.
